Any help much appreciated!

Static???

Hey guys,
I'm having a bit of trouble with my phone since early this afternoon.
It seems like there's some sort of static or shock bouncing off words when someone is talking to me on the other end. What could be the problem??? I mean it was working perfectly fine yesterday...
Thanks for your help.

Hardware keyboard problem

Recently, I've got problem with writting my texts on Uni. Some letters don't appear, when I'm writting. For example writting "how are you today?", I got "how ae you tday?". But when press the letter alone, it works. It looks like, it is trouble when writting a little bit quicker. But I realizes, that it happend also when I'm writting slowly. Dunno, what to do.
I have Ranju /tomal/'s 7.7 rom. Also tried 8.2, but still the same.
Can anyone help, or have anybody any suggestion?

Touch Pro Slide doesn't change to landscape? and other werid problems...advice

Hey guys ive had my htc touch pro for about a week now, and im running the rome0s, i think its a great improvment over the stock 3 ROM..
Anyway to my problem, i think it may be hardware related but not so sure.
When i am wanting to use the QWERTY keyboard i slide it out as normal. But sometimes it will not change the screen to landscape. It will stay as portrait.
Ive left the keyboard open for a while and it will finally click over...
Not sure why. It does not happen all the time but it is very annoying when i need to type something quickly.
Does anybody else experiance this huge delay/problem?
Its not just in text messaging but with every application including the home screen....
Could my HTC Touch Pro be faulty?
Or is it something i will just have to deal with?
Please help me out soon guys as i can exchagne it straight over for a new one if need be.
Update: Just happened again, though this time it was while i was typing a text message....any ideas?
It would be hard to proove that it happens to the shop because it is quite random :S
Bump. Come on guys anybody got any advice to give??

Touchscreen Doesn't Work Occasionally

It doesn't work in small areas of the screen, at random.
For example, earlier today, when typing on portrait, the "E" key won't work. I went to calibration, and when typing the "E" on the short sentence, it didn't register.
After the E-key starts working, all of a sudden the "N" key doesn't work. Same story with the calibration not working as well for that key...
When this happens, and I switch to landscape, the letter/item/object in that vicinity still doesn't work.
It's as if that small area is dead, and it happens at random, but enough that I am annoyed I can't text.
What's going on...?
I had that problem with the P key a restart made it better again
This used to happen to me on optimized stock roms with the stock keyboard. I would suggest you to find a keyboard on the market such as swype, or flexT9 and use one of those.
I am not aware of a fix for the keyboard not responding to touch gestures, So you have to improvise
Same here, I searched but could not find a fix. When I used another keyboard (if I recall) the problem become less frequent. Now that i am rooted and running a custom ROM, problem resolved.
Its gonna happen no matter what. Read the sensation forums its happening with that phone as well. Not sure if HTC is using the same touchscreen driver, but if they are that would explain it.
Do you know if it is a rooting problem our just the phones driver? I never had any issues when my phone was stock...the keyboard felt better on stock also.

This also happens to me on occasion but it happened to my captivate also. Both rooted and romed with ASOP source. Maybe thats the cause?
Same here. Rooted and running a CoreDroid rom right now. Annoying.
That happens to me sometimes. Usually when I clean the screen it works.
This sure does appear to be a problem plaguing a lot of people.
I dont know why I've been spared this misery.
The closest I've ever experienced to this sort of problem was occasionally I'd be typing and it would sort of freeze, but all of the characters I typed in that "frozen" period of time actually went through, they just got delayed, like the phone had to catch up, as if they were buffered, but their actual output to the screen lagged by a second or or two. It doesn't do it anymore, and hasn't for a long time.
I can't think of what I did that would have made it disappear... I haven't flashed a different ROM for a long time. Running inspired ace.
What you guys are describing sounds different... Like no matter what you do, a certain key won't register, yet others will register just fine.
Yep that is what happens. No matter what you do the certain key would not register. It would require a restart. But as I mentioned before, ever since I rooted and changed ROMS, I have not experienced this problem again, yet. It wasn't often this would happen. Maybe twice a week or so....
This happens on my inspire as well. For me its the H key sometimes. I'm running cyanogenmod 7.1 and strangely enough its happened for two different keyboards: swift beta and smart keyboard pro. I feel a little relieved its not just me experiencing this

Keys randomly dont work??

Hi, has anyone had the problem where certain keys on your keyboard randomly don't work but the keys around it do? I have to turn the screen off a few times to get it to work again. It happens very often, is there any fix? This is the first android phone that I've had a issue with the keyboard with. (nexus one and g2 were fine)
Using Gingeritis (beta IV) (Happens on the other roms too) and smart keyboard pro (tried the gingerbread keyboard same problem)
Thanks
I get this problem too.
I've noticed it on all of the ROMs I've used.
Doesn't matter if it's stock keyboard, SwiftKey, or SlideIT, I still get that problem.

Double check that you are not accidentally resting your finger on one of the touch buttons on the phone. i had this problem when i first got my Thunderbolt and realized it was how i was holding the phone.
I've noticed this too, and like the person above me said, its usually because my hand barely rests on the search button. I guess its far enough off that it doesn't register it as touching the button, but still a part of the touch screen? Either way, moving my hand fixes it.

My buddy had this problem where the screen was unresponsive and he called VZW about it and they acknowledged that it is a known problem. Sorry dont know a fix but apparently VZW knows about it.
for me, the problem hasnt been a key on the keyboard not working, but lits of times when i am in the middle of typing, the keyboard will disappear & when i bring it up again, the cursor will be in a completely different place.
additionally, sometimes when i press on a link nothing will happen. ill have to press 2-3 times before it registers. and as with the unresponsive key issue, this is also with any rom.
the cursor issue though seems to be worse on aosp roms.
I get this issue as well. It is VERY frustrating. I'm using swiftkey
I had trouble getting letter "k" to work today in smart keyboard pro . It took 4 tries.
I'm trying TouchPal, so far so good.
I've had this problem happen with EVERY ROM I've flashed and with multiple keyboards (HTC KB, GB KB, Swiftkey, etc.)

So will they replace phones? It's hella annoying.
They did offer to swap it for him. He is a unique case though, he is on his fourth or fifth tb. he has called vzw so many times and complained about his phone, they are going to give him a bionic when it comes out. so he declined the swap, but it was offered.
